Just finished the hidden dungeon... took me five hours. I'm kind of torn on it because on the one hand, this game's controls are pretty bad for the precise little movements a lot of the platforming requires, and it took me a lot longer to get through some rooms than it should have just because of all the time spent fighting the controls, but on the other hand the rooms are all really cool and well designed.

Also the item you get at at the very end is crazy.

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.

Nahh i'm gonna pick this up ASAP I just wanna finish Witcher 3 first because i know if i don't do it now i never will (not counting DLC, gonna save that for later) -- maybe can knock it out this week but honestly have no idea how much is left. Just about to sail to Skellige

By the time I was allowed to drive at night, when my first iron giant showed up in a big dramatic bridge showdown, I killed it in 10 seconds. They should have probably gated the side quest stuff a bit better maybe haha.

if you didn't walk around at night in chapter 1 to see what would happen then instantly run into an iron giant who black holed your entire party I dunno what to say

Lol you have like 15-infinity hours left, depending on how completionist you are.

I haven't touched a single other game since this released and I don't think I will until I get 100%. I'm close, I just need to get to level 99, all recipes, all bounties, all fish, all side quests, I don't know if I'm going to get all ascension things but I may as well try.

I feel like I should have played TW3 before FFXV because, while I'm sure it'll be really fun and cool and interesting, it'll kind of suck to go back to running around a giant open world on your lonesome without some other guys following you around chatting and eating and doing cool poses while killing stuff with you.

At this point just enjoy Witcher 3 and wait for whatever patches/dlc is coming for XV. It's supposed to be pretty significant and free from what I heard. Witcher 3 is well worth your time.

I have no idea how you're supposed to even get enough AP to get the 999 point nodes. At most I've had like 250 after saving up a lot.

Hey that's fine. As long as you play a game you enjoy. Try to stay away from spoilers though. The story isn't sensational or anything but spoiling it would be a waste. Also some content patches are coming so waiting a bit might be a solid idea anyway.

Here's how to farm ap: smash weak things with warp strikes and always be link striking. I'm constantly getting ap at a steady tick from chocobo and car driving.

You get locked into the end game for short stretches but there's rarely a point where you can't go back.

Just beat the game last night. Most surprising thing is it doesn't waste time with "final forms" or anything like that. You fight ifrit and then you gently caress up aryn and it's over.

Well, I confused you with the other guy with the same noob avi who didn't use tags at all, so I'm not as mad at you as I am with the other guy who is going to get suplexed by my hit squad fairly soon.

Yeah, it's weird but I wish they added about 1000 NPCs that stop the action to say "Hey can you help me find my Magma Sword. The Blast Ants took em." like Fallout. Really the only downside to the game imho.
